Jordan Rules

Yes, somebody in Jordan rules for stopping by our blog.

The Jordanian national team made history fairly recently by qualifying for the Asian Cup for the first time. The youth team also achieved an impressive feat, qualifying for the U20 World Cup in Canada later this year.

They're drawn into Group B, with Spain, Uruguay and Zambia.

"Nashama" is the nickname given to the national team. In Arabic, it translates roughly into "bravery, showing courage, initiative, heart and gallantry".
